Revision as of 01:22, 27 July 2022
Only those with knighthood may learn the Forging trade skill. If you are a resident of a city or commune, you will automatically be a member of the forging cartel in that location and able to use the unique patterns of that cartel. Forging is the skill of creating a wide assortment of weapons and armour. In order to forge something, you must first find a forge. Chances are it will not be burning, in which case you must buy some coal (probably at one of the markets), and put it in the forge. Then, you must FIRE FORGE to get it going. If a forge goes too long without anyone forging in it, then it will go out. Once you have got the forge going, you can try to forge something. Each item has certain commodity requirements which are viewable on the forging pattern you use. For all forging commands, you should use the exact pattern number of the item. Once you've established that you have the proper ingredients, you may FORGE FOR <pattern number>. The commodities will be removed from your inventory and put in the forge, at which point you cannot recover them. The exception is leather items, in which case you CRAFT <item> <number> in place of FORGE, e.g. CRAFT SCABBARD <design #>. Full details can be found in the AB for each relevant ability, e.g AB FORGING SCABBARDS. Some items created with forging can be enhanced - see HELP ENHANCEMENTS. |

ArmourEnhance
| Syntax |
| ENHANCEMENT ADD <armour> <enhancement> [<type>] ENHANCEMENT REMOVE <armour> <enhancement> [<type>] |

Enchanters are able to enhance armour with a variety of additional capabilities, ranging from weather resistance to increased influence ability. Each enhancement has its own materials requirement, as listed below. Additionally, some enhancements have specific types that must be selected; these enhancements can be used multiple times, so long as they are of different types. Armour must be worn for the enhancements to take effect.
Charm: Typed according to damage type. Requires one tailoring knot of the appropriate type. Provides 1/6 resistance of the selected damage type.
Influence: Types according to influence type. Requires one tailoring knot of the appropriate type. Provides 1/6 buff to selected influence type.
Quickening: Requires 5 wood and 5 silk. Increased celerity/movement speed.
Mass: Requires 10 steel. Increased rooting/summoning resistances.

Padding
| Syntax |
| PAD <item> DEPAD <item> |
| Outlay: 5+ cloth |

Speed: Increases weapon speed by .1 seconds.
Razor: Increases weapon bleeding by 2% of weapon damage for cutting weapons.
Impact: Increases weapon bruising by 2% of weapon damage for blunt weapons.

Masterarmour
| Syntax |
| MASTERARMOUR <armour> |
| Power: 50% of reserves |
This skill will allow you to transform platemail, chainmail, or scalemail into your personal master armour. Note that this will drain your personal power reserves which need to be at least at 50%. Because only one such master armour can exist, if you mark another set of armour, the old one will be destroyed. Marking will increase the armour's protection from 20% to 25% and that armour will not decay. This armour must be a set you have personally crafted.
You may continue to wear your masterarmour after you have forgotten the forging skill, but not after you forget the knighthood skill.
